Its been a real long time that I have posted anything on my blog. Here I come with an interactive card that I had made last week.

The supplies are from the house of Mudra and this is one of the projects I made from their Latest release.

Here is the video of the project. Let me describe the making process to you.

I took a white cardstock and blended distress inks of seven color lightly.

Then I sprayed mist on it and let the water to react with the inks.

I cut a circular panel with a die.

Then I stamped the unicorn from Stay Magical set from Mudra, colored it, and fussy cut it.

Meanwhile I stamped the same image on to an acetate sheet.

Then I adhered the colored and fussy cut image on a cardstock with the sentiment from the same set coupled with few heart die cuts after seeing the space through the colored die cut panel as prepared before.

Then I adhered the acetate sheet carefully to the colored panel after placing it exactly on to the adhered colored image. A lot more care is taken to place it on the colored image so that it doesnt misplace.

I Took double sided tape and adhered on to the colored panel keeping a space for the tag to move freely.

To complete the magic, I added a tag in between the acetate and the stamped image.

Here, I have colored the image with three colors of Red, Orange and Yellow with Crayola Markers. I added some shimmer to it with Wink of Stella.

Then I gathered all the stamp sets from Mudra ( images are at the bottom of the post) and found all the images of BIRTHDAY sentiment. I stamped randomly all of them with Versamark leaving small gaps and them embossed them will clear embossing powder from Wow.

A circular diecut window is the best suited with the butterfly, that I thought. I adhered a piece of vellum to give a nice translucent look to the window.Here is the full image:

This time I am sharing a card made with pattern papers. I never pattern papers as such. I redeemed my winning prize voucher from Lulupu craft lounge and bought a pack of pattern papers : My funny valentine by Pebbles for this valentine's day.

I chose one of the papers with Happy valentine's day written all over. I cut a die frame out of the Gina Marie designs in pink color (cardstock). I stamped some distress inks with the background stamp from Hero Arts. Then I sprayed pearl mist all over the circular die cut to give a translucent look.

It looks a cover of vellum over the stamped background with the effect of pearl mist. I stamped some images from Lawn Fawn's Science of love and colored them with Crayola markers which are not good as copics but yes they are the cheaper alternatives.

This is another card i had made for my debut post in Mudra blog. I have used their products solely here in this post.

I first took a card stock and masked it with a die cut from Gina Marie designs heart shapes. Then I applied distress inks with blending foam. the colors I chose were Raspberry pink, Festive berries, Spiced marmalade. I did not blend that well. Ii splattered some water droplets with a paint brush and waited for the magic to create.

Here is another card which i made in a jiffy. I have used Hero arts triangles back ground stamp to create a distressed background.

I stamped, colored and fussy cut the otter fro MFT.

I have used the Neat and Tangled set of Heart of gold for the die, stamp and the sentiment.

It is always fun to create shaker cards. I found the heart from Neat and Tangled to be a perfect element for shaker cards. To match up the sentiment, I added some tiny heart die cuts from glitter sheets. The stamped and colored hearts are from the Heart Background builder from Mudra Craft stamps.

Today's second card on the blog. I had bought this set of Heart of Gold from Neat and Tangled and I immediately fell in love with the set. I did not get tired of stamping with the same again and again and this single image of the triangled-heart is way too gorgeous!

I stamped randomly on a CS and embossed them with gold. I colored them with Distress inks. The sentiment is from the Avery Alle.

This is a much simple card which probably doesn't need any rules to follow or any tip as such needed. Just a tip: be careful while stamping with Versamark so that you do not overlap them anywhere keeping the gaps more or less uniform.

Today i am gonna share one card that I made for my debut post in Mudra'a blog (you can find the link in my earlier post)

when it comes to water color I go gaga over Fuji or transparent colors, not only they come at a really cheap price of 75 INR only but also they last long, water proof and rich in their results!

This time I decided to cut my time really short for card making. I took a Brushto 250gsm watercolor cardstock and ran my wet brushes with Light Blue, Light Green and Yellow colors from the folios over the CS.

I decided to let t dry on its own rather going for heat drying. I stamped images from the Beautiful sets from Mudra that you can find here

I have used some stamps from Mudra like the Linen Blooms and Daisy blooms and colored them with Fuji or transparent water colors, I Love them as compared to Distress inks as they dont give a faded look afterwards, they are always bright!

I cut down the central part with Gina Marie circular stitched die and used the sentiment over it from Mudra again ( 'Love' set )

I hope you have missed me. I was busy with exams :( couldn't craft and post anything as such.

As I got some time, made some cards as quickly as possible. Today I will be sharing some in an array.

This is the first card that I did with Altenew 'to the moon' set. I completely fell in love with the set. I bought the set in the Black Friday sale. But after I bought the same, I didnt know what to make from this. *confused* and eventually lost my mojo after so many days gap in crafting (almost two months).

I went to the altenew site and looked on to the inspirations and I found the masterpiece of Jocelyn Olson. I took her card as the inspiration and tried to remake it. I added the panel with blending some blues from Distress inks and sprinkling some pearl powder mixed with water. The set has layered images og moon, I took the second layer and embossed it with silver. The sentiment is from the same set.

I took the tiny stars from the Let's Party set from Mudra craft stamps India.
